Oprah Wrangler February 5, 2013 Author February 5, 2013 Was it? When I tried to view it, the feed would not play. Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk 2
Oprah Wrangler February 5, 2013 Author February 5, 2013 Sorry for the bad video but my cell phone takes some pretty crappy shots.
jimlin February 5, 2013 February 5, 2013 cool, looks like you added some new livestock to the tank. nice freshwater tank. are those rainbow fish i see with the angels? i tried to breed angelfish, but always ended up moving before the angels reached breeding size.

Yes, I did. I got a few coral, the small clown (there were two but that sixline is evil, tore the little things tell off) and a great new pump for my return from Quantum Reefs (thanks Vince and Steve). I will try and get a video of the plumping you see in the background. I am very excited about the tank because it has a lot of DIY that I have wanted to try on a tank but never did. The overflow is awesome. Good eye, those are Peacock Rainbows. They do not get as large as the other Rainbows on the market. I have a mix of females and males. It is really cool watching the males display for the females. The Angels are for my wife ( she loves those things) I purchased three when they were the size of quarter from Pristine Aquariums. These two chased the third out of the tan so I am hoping they are male and female, but only time will tell. Both tanks are coming along well, slowly, but well. Thanks for watching.
Oprah Wrangler February 5, 2013 Author February 5, 2013 looking good Andre. Thanks guys, I owe a lot to you and your help with the pump, fish, and the coral. Its not were I want it to be, but as long as you stay in business and I keep getting paid, it will get there. Quantum reefs is my choice for my aquarium needs...(sounds like I am ready for a commercial...lol)
jimlin February 5, 2013 February 5, 2013 maybe its time for you to put a large leaf or something similar to see if they will lay eggs.

Quantum reefs is my choice for my aquarium needs...(sounds like I am ready for a commercial...lol) but wait... there's more :-) honestly, it's your dedication and passion that is making the tank look great.
Oprah Wrangler February 5, 2013 Author February 5, 2013 maybe its time for you to put a large leaf or something similar to see if they will lay eggs. I was thinking about the same thing, just not sure what to put in there or where to get it from. You have any suggestions?
Oprah Wrangler February 5, 2013 Author February 5, 2013 but wait... there's more :-) honestly, it's your dedication and passion that is making the tank look great. Thanks for that, but I think the majority of us in this hobby would agree that behind any good aquarium hobbyist is a great LFS. For that,my hat goes off to you, Quantum Reefs. Keep up the good work.
jimlin February 5, 2013 February 5, 2013 a large vertical slate or a large artificial amazon sword works. you can also purchase a spawning cone which works for angels as well as discus fishes.

Oprah Wrangler February 5, 2013 Author February 5, 2013 I have some slate in the shed actually. Perhaps I will break a piece tonight. Thanks for the recommendation.
Oprah Wrangler February 5, 2013 Author February 5, 2013 I really like your freshwater tank. Thank you very much. If I can get my salty to be as impressive, I will be a very happy hobbyist.
Oprah Wrangler February 6, 2013 Author February 6, 2013 (edited) I just realized that I failed to give any specifics about the saltwater tank. Mg- 1600 ppm Alk- 10 dKH Ca- 490 ppm The tank: 30 gallons (36" x 18" x 12") with a wet/dry filter. ( I put rock rubble in place of the bio-balls) The lighting: 6 x T5: 3 x 39 watt T5 HO 12,000K 3 x 39 watt T5 HO Actinic Blue 6 x Dual Blue Moon LEDs I am consulting my LFS about housing SPS in the system. I am getting about 600 gph of flow thru the tank. I don't run a skimmer but I do a 5 gallon water change every other day. Edited February 6, 2013 by Oprah Wrangler
